IDAHO FALLS – A large contingent of police are investigating a “suspicious death” in a commercial area of Idaho Falls.

Over a dozen officers responded to an area on Wardell Street at about 12:30 p.m. Friday, according to Idaho Falls Police Department spokeswoman Jessica Clements.

The area in question is between the UPS Customer Center and the Super 8 Hotel. Police have surrounded the area with police tape.

Very little information has been released about the situation. Clements confirmed a suspicious death but offered no other information. She did say there is currently no danger to the public.

At around 5:30 p.m., a white camping trailer was seen being hauled away from the scene on Wardell Street by police and Eaton Towing.

The significance of the trailer is unclear. It’s also unknown if there are any suspects in this case.
